Hi all. I'm not sure how familiar anyone is with this but Brad the live journal creater had a thing up on his site and on his journal called live journal radio. It was basically a big database where you can listen to voice posts nonstop. However a couple days ago it stopped working. I was just curious if anyone has listened to it and if so where did it go?

Never heard of it. Is it a place where you can hear those on ur f list non stop instead of having to go into that person's lj and hit play?

No what it did is that it would play random live journal voice posts. It was pretty neat hope he brings it back.

Tf? Has anyone looked at the directory that comes up when you go onto radio.bradfitz.com? (Scrowl down) I think he should put some index file there so we can't see the logs.

It works again! He said when he first came out with it that he may make it a live journal feature but for now it's just something on his site do to bandwith

I'm gonna go check it out...I wonder if mine are ever on there? Lol. I mean, how does he pick them? Probably he jsut puts it on random, and it just grabs them. Omg. Wouldn't it be funny to hear yourself? lol

something to do with XML/pod casting. I was listening for a non-American yesterday and think I heard one Brit. not sure of her accent actually. sounded halfway between English and aussie so who knows Lol! can't even pick out my own; how sad! haha

I have heard some people on my friends list, I think he has this software that goes and grabbs the phone posts from live journal and puts it in a data file and uploads it to his servers.
